Untitled
He was driving down Cocaine Boulevard he had killers in the car.
He drove with a blank stare as the killers put their clips in their pistols.
His soul was the color red stained with blood from all the murders he had ordered and committed.
The car came to a stop.
He pointed at a white white house.

Black Woman
She captured me in her sexiness with her gravitational pull
Her gravitational pull tugs at my essences
The heat she emit would make Satan sweat
Her earth tone skin have men erupting like volcanoes
With a smile as bright as the sun that warms my heart you chase away the sorrow that clouds my life
With skin that rivals the marvels of the universe time itself stands still and take notice
With the moon for your crown and the earth for your throne you give a whole new meaning to the title Ms. Universe.

Woman
She is God's greatest creation
A sculpture of pure genius for man to marvel at
A living portrait art made flesh painted across the canvas of the world
Hues of brown
Strokes of red
Dabs of yellow
Dipping his brush in the fabric of space creating the first Ms. Universe.

Knowledge
The first step to gaining knowledge is to recognize one's own ignorance
to take a stance against stupidity even if it means standing alone
The second step to gaining knowledge is to inhale a whirlwind of knowledge and exhale understanding
to fly on the winds of wisdom
